The
Epidemiology Monitor - May
2026
Editor's Note:
Genealogy
is a topic that fascinates many but what if, in addition
to traits like eye color, we passed along
transgenerational effects of environmental hazards?
That's the topic of our first article this month. With
Hantavirus all over the news, we've included a unique look
at how people are reacting to it following the COVID-19
epidemic. We've also dug into our archives for articles on
Ebola which has reared it's ugly head in the DRC again.
May is graduation month for many but with that comes the
search for the perfect job. A lot has changed in that
process over the last few years especially with the
introduction of AI in hiring systems. So we've taken a
look back at issues involved in the search to help you
build a checklist and hopefully find a job faster.
BOOKS
This month our resource section is dedicated to a series
of free documents on SAS PROCs. These documents were used
in a graduate education program and the author has
generously allowed us to list them for you to download for
free.
Do you have a bookshelf
to clear but you absolutely don't want to toss the books
that cost you dearly into the trash? Let us know and
we'll list them for you in the hopes of finding a home for
them. Just email us at
michele@epimonitor.net and we'll talk you through the
logistics of the program.
We are
starting to hear from many of you with articles that you'd
like us to consider publishing. We are always interested
in your offerings and are finding your peers are really
enjoying them. Please also consider nominating people for
our profile series, writing a review of a book, or letting
us know about individuals whose accomplishment should be
added to our monthly Notes on People feature.
As always,
we continue to provide you with our popular monthly word
game feature, Notes on People, an overview of what we are
reading from the public media, and a listing of near term
upcoming events. Ask us about the sponsorship
opportunities for these standard monthly features - it
offers you great exposure for your event, institution,
book or other item of interest to our readers!
Until next
month - stay safe and busy!
